Comprehensive and Detailed In-Depth Explanation:

Step 1: Analyzing the Primary Path

The given network uses IS-IS Auto FRR, which ensures a backup route in case of failure.

The shortest path from R1 to 10.0.3.3/32 is calculated based on the OSPF link costs:

Path 1 (Primary Path): R1 → R2 → R3

Cost: 10 (R1→R2) + 5 (R2→R3) = 15 ✅

Step 2: Checking the Backup Path

The statement claims that the backup path is R1 → R4 → R2 → R3. Let ' s calculate the cost:

Path 2 (Backup Path via R4): R1 → R4 → R2 → R3

Cost: 10 (R1→R4) + 50 (R4→R2) + 5 (R2→R3) = 65 ❌ (Too high)

The backup path should be an alternative shortest path that is as close as possible to the primary path in cost.

R1 → R4 → R2 → R3 is not a feasible backup path because the cost (65) is significantly higher than the primary path (15).

Step 3: Correct Backup Path Selection

If IS-IS Auto FRR is enabled, a feasible backup path should have a cost close to the primary path.

In this scenario, no viable alternative path meets the Auto FRR requirements efficiently.

The given backup path is incorrect.

Final Answer: ✅ FALSE (Option B)
